Hi, Cosimo, Thank you for your response...
I always liked the layout tighter because it has the ergonomics of the "Icon View" compromised with an better use of space (It can show up to 100% more files than the "non-compact" option of icon view).. It would be great to get the "tighter layout" back to nautilus, perhaps even as an less obscure preference... :) Best regards, -- Lucas On Thu, Oct 20, 2011 at 8:49 PM, Cosimo Cecchi <cosi...@gnome.org> wrote: > > On Mon, 2011-10-03 at 12:27 -0300, Lucas Deters wrote: > > Let me reformulate my question: there is some plan to re-implement the > > "tighter layout" option in nautilus? > > > > > > http://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/commit/?id=1d3d4a1e954fcc15f2a9c7d933e7bc65c5330cc3 > > Hi Lucas, > > this option was removed from Nautilus 3.0 to reduce the number of very > similar ways in which icons can be arranged in an icon view; > note that Nautilus already has the Compact View, which is pretty similar > in functionality to the tighter layout option. > > There are quite some bugs in Nautilus bugzilla with useful proposals on > a better algorithm for distributing padding and empty space around icons > in Icon View, and I think that's also something worth exploring in order > to have a better experience for everyone (i.e. not hidden behind a > "unbreak my icon view" obscure preference), but unfortunately there > haven't been enough manpower available to implement those proposals yet. > > Cosimo >
